ryoko? is it hard to get muscles like that? do guys have to work out a lot or soemthing? or.. do guys have to be born with it all?
Is it hard? Lets see.
Start of your daily training with a 2 mile run (or more if you dont totally despised how much running sucks)
Then maybe 6 rounds of jump rope. If your in hurry thats 2 minutes each, if not then 3. So 12-18 minutes. In between rounds (30 seconds) you knock out 20 push-ups per round.
Unfortunately today is 'station training'. Theres many areas set up in the gym, and you spend 2 minutes doing each, then switch on the bell
2 mins Weighted punches
2 mins Non weighted punches
2 mins Thai kicks (heavy bag)
2 mins Flutterkicks
2 mins Crunches
2 mins Clinch
2 mins Medicine ball
2 mins Push-ups with bars
2 mins Thai Squats
2 mins Knee thrusts
If your not crawling on the floor yet, you didnt work hard enough.
So to finish the day, gonna do 50 special sittups.
You lay on your back. Your partner hits you in the stomach. You do the situp and back down. Repeat.
(Those are my favorite, I likes a lot.)
Tuesdays is technique
Thursdays is cardio (like above)
Sundays is open sparring Thai / MMA
Not every day is that hard. But some go two MMA / Cage class THEN kickboxing.
But see this does not take any special or expensive equipment to do; anyone can do most of these exercises. You dont need an Ab-Roller to tune the tummy. Maybe your not conditioning for a 15 minute full out ring fight, but you could take 10 minutes every three days to knock out 50 sittups. Eventually 100 becomes easy.
For good 8 pack results make sure to work the lats by using them for some of the sittups (turn, twist...)
If you just want to improve your weight, or improve your cardio, running and diet alone will do it.
-Walking is BS dont bother. Jog and sprint - or go home.
-Dont eat entire bag of Oreos after dinner then cry your overweight-If you get cramps, you need more water, and less sugar.
-If you get tired fast, sleep more and eat better
Biggest reason people cramp when running is cuz of SODA. Yup. It kills you. Caffeine dehydrates you, and sugar cramps your muscles up when exercising. Pop is made of black, sludgy syrup and suger mixed into carbo-water. Its nasty. Like black guck running through your veins.
A big part to being in shape / losing weight is DEDICATION. Don't do it twice then give up. Decide to do it, and stick with it. Yeah it sucks ass for the first few weeks, totally. But after a couple weeks, it gets easier, and easier - eventually you really start to like it.
Sure, some hot head will say "I carry 150 lb sandbags through a tire course" blah blah. But thats a good way to hurt your back and stuff.
Be certain to drink plenty of water, and eat plenty. Or you'll die...or something
please 5k.
